Can you modify the ip addressing properties of a workstation withouy being on it?

Yes, it is possible to modify the IP addressing properties of a workstation without being physically present at the device. This can be done remotely using various methods, such as remote desktop software, network management tools, or command-line utilities like PowerShell or SSH, provided that remote access is enabled and appropriate permissions are granted. Additionally, network configuration can be adjusted through DHCP settings on the router or server managing the IP addresses.
